Gregory
Background
Charles Gregory is a lawyer in England.
During the events of Tales from the Crypt (1972) played by Roy Dotrice
Gregory tells Jason all of his money is gone and Jason may have to declare bankruptcy or sell some of his items to pay his debts. Jason gets a call from Gregory who tells him he wants to talk to him about money. A Detective calls Gregory and tells him Jason is dead. Gregory tells Enid, Jason is dead and she is rich now due to Gregory's large insurance policy. She tells him she wished for lots of money and shows Gregory the statuette. Gregory recalls the story of the Monkey's Paw and tells Enid not to wish Jason back from the dead. He tells her in the story the son comes back, but as a mutilated corpse. She wishes for Jason to come back as he was exactly before the crash. There is a knock on the door and pallbearers bring in Jason's coffin. As Enid goes to open the casket, a Pallbearer tells her Jason died of a heart attack before the accident. Enid and Gregory open the casket and before leaving, Gregory warns Enid not to make another wish. Jason comes back to life screaming in pain and Gregory runs back into the house. Gregory tells her, Jason's body is filled with embalming fluid and Enid slashes Jason open with a sword, but he continues to live with all of his pieces wriggling.
